The knitbrooks Estuary Slouch is a double brimmed hat with loads of texture in both the brim and the slouch! An estuary is a partially enclosed coastal body of water with a river or stream flowing into it, and has a free flowing connection to the ocean.

This is a great pattern for a beginner looking for something a little more challenging than a simple slouchy hat, but not too complicated. Made in a super bulky yarn, this hat works up quickly for a beautiful autumn and winter accessory (with or without a pom).

Skills required

• Basic knitting knowledge
• Knitting in the round, knitting two/three together, yarn overs
• Some tutorial photos are included
